User Interface

The provided web interface includes three parts; EVC Conference Moderator, EVC Admin, and EVC

Reports. Overall, the web UI is well designed and responsive (especially from systems on the same

subnet), although the programming is somewhat primitive by today’s web programming standards. For

example, as far as we can tell, there are no right mouse click options within the interface. Instead, all

navigation and control involves either clicking on hyperlinks, selecting check boxes or drop-downs, and

then clicking submit. In addition, the UI permits users to change screens without saving setting changes;

a weakness that could potentially cause issues for new users or those operating in fast-paced

environments. Some form of warning like “Do you wish to save your setting changes?” would be a

welcome addition.

The web UI does provide standard (index based) and context sensitive help in most areas.

The MXM client / server interface, however, is quite different. With a plethora of options and

capabilities, MXM is more than ready to support environments and administrators in need of advanced

management functionality. Notable MXM features described in the product’s 400+ page manual include

remote configuration of Emblaze-VCON endpoints and MCUs, advanced gatekeeper functionality

(endpoint and MCU registration, call routing policies, etc.), monitoring of device status and connection

states, creation and administration of user groups and policies, bandwidth management, call initiation and

termination, and more. Basically, MXM is a power-tool designed for system administrators.
